Yes, you can use PdfSharpCore (not using System.Drawing).
As long as you exclusively use it on Windows, you can also use PdfSharpNetStandard (using System.Drawing).

Update (April 3, 2023):
Starting today there are new "official" PDFsharp & MigraDoc packages for .NET 6 that can also be used under Linux and other platforms. Find the source code on GitHub or get the preview packages 6.0.0 from NuGet.

Old answer:
The "official" PDFsharp library does not yet support .NET Core, but there are "inofficial" ports to .NET Core that may or may not work as expected.

So:
No, PDFsharp does not work with .NET Core yet.
Yes, you can get third-party libraries that support the PDFsharp APIs with .NET Core.
